[QUOTE="Bluetit1802, post: 1500559, member: 94045"] What exactly has gone up from 7.3 to 8.2? When were these tests taken? Are they fasting tests or other times? Random tests on their own are meaningless. You have to compare like with like. Are you intending to test before you eat and again 2 hours after first bite? These are the important times to test. By doing this and keeping a food diary including portion sizes, then recording your before and after levels alongside you will see if that meal was a suitable one or not. Any rise over 2mmol/l is not good and there were too many carbs on your plate. It is preferable to keep any rise under 1.5mmol/l. I'm sorry to hear your ulcerative colitis has flared up. Have you any idea what may have triggered it - a particular food? [/QUOTE]
